I am currently working on a Maritime museum and ran into this quote today and really liked it...the author is unknown

Since the Dawn of time man has been fascinated by the sea from the Vikings to the Mawkens. To Explore, To expand ones boundryies to search for wealth and reward on this vast world of water. The earliest explores Egyptians, Chinese, Romans and others .... as they progressesd so did the size and speed of ships and .....to exlore the seas. From wood to steel, cloth to steam the oceans have been a global highway for 100’s of years.

So much hope for the future of biking in our cities!

I am not a big Kevin Costner fan but this is an inspiring story full of many underlying themes/political issues and within that there is wonderful picture of the beautiful culture of Mexican Americans....I am going to track down some of the songs on here for sure to add to my library.
